Opportunity Summary:
The U.S. Embassy in Vilnius, operating under the U.S. Department of State (U.S. Mission to Lithuania), released a discretionary grant opportunity titled "Gender-Based Violence Training in Lithuanian Municipalities" (Funding Opportunity Number: DOSLT 16 GR 001 EUR 070116). The program is designed as a 12-month initiative focused on increasing awareness of gender-based violence (GBV) at the municipal level in Lithuania, with an emphasis on strengthening how local institutions recognize, respond to, and coordinate around GBV cases.
The core purpose of the grant is to build practical, repeatable training capacity for municipalities. A key early deliverable is the development of a structured GBV training program specifically intended for use in Lithuanian municipal settings. This suggests the Embassy is looking not just for one-off events, but for a training package or curriculum that can be delivered consistently, tailored to local realities, and potentially reused or adapted beyond the initial project period.
The implementation component centers on delivering one-day GBV trainings in five selected municipalities. These trainings are intended to be cross-sector and community-wide, bringing together the main institutions that typically encounter GBV: social workers, schools and education staff, police, hospitals and health providers, local government representatives, and prosecutors. By convening these groups together, the project aims to improve shared understanding of GBV dynamics, clarify institutional roles, and encourage more aligned responses so victims do not fall through gaps between services.
To reinforce learning and turn training into real practice changes, the program also requires three follow-up trainings or consultations in each of the five municipalities after the initial one-day session. These follow-ups are meant to deepen the work, troubleshoot challenges that appear once participants begin applying new approaches, and keep local momentum moving in the months after the first training. In addition, the project must produce a contact or distribution list for each municipality so that training participants and other local stakeholders can easily communicate, exchange information, and share best practices. This networking element is intended to make coordination more routine and to support ongoing collaboration rather than leaving participants isolated after the training ends.
Another major element is a centralized train-the-trainer workshop for participants who want to apply the Coordinated Community Response (CCR) model in their municipalities. CCR is generally understood as a structured approach that aligns multiple agencies and community partners around shared protocols and coordinated interventions, so that responses to GBV are consistent and victim-centered. By training trainers and CCR-minded participants centrally, the program aims to create local champions who can carry the methods back to their communities and sustain or expand the work beyond the initial grant period.
Administratively, the funding instrument is a grant and the activity category is listed as Law, Justice and Legal Services under CFDA 19.801. The opportunity anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with a funding ceiling of $21,857. The eligible applicant type listed is "Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education," indicating the competition was aimed at certain nonprofit entities rather than U.S.-style 501(c)(3) charities. The opportunity was created on June 29, 2016, with an original closing date of August 19, 2016, and applicants were instructed to consult the full notice for complete requirements and submission details.
